Mrs. Yehudis Dubinsky, a beloved mother and grandmother from a Chabad family who led a life of Mesiras Nefesh under Communism, passed away on Monday, 20 Teves, 5784.
She was 96.
Mrs Yehudis Dubinsky was the daughter of Reb Avrum and Chana Tziperstein OBM, a heroic Chabad family from Kremenchug, Ukraine; who risked their lives for the spread of Yidishkeit during the post-war years in the 70’s and 80’s.
Reb Avrum, his wife, and 12 children held undercover minyanim in their home, ensuring that Yidishkeit continued during the difficult time of the Soviet Union. Their family was a major support for the Yidden in the Kremenchug community.
Taking her father’s lead, Mrs. Yehudis Dubinsky ensured the continuation of Yidishkeit in America, raising a beautiful family.
She was extremely dedicated to her family and always found a way to give to others. Her smile radiated to everyone she encountered. Her entire life was about others.
Mrs. Dubinsky is survived by her children, Chana Portnoy – Fair Lawn, NJ and Tanya Dubinsky – Flatbush, NY.
She is also survived by her three siblings; Rosa, Meir, and Efim Tziperstein, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren.
